Join us as we welcome cybersecurity expert Paul LaPorte from the Advanced Institute for Manufacturing (AIM) to shed light on the pressing issue of cyber threats facing small to medium-sized manufacturers. In our latest conversation, Paul explains the allure of these businesses to cybercriminals and the critical need for robust cybersecurity measures. We tackle the complexities of the NIST 800-171 guidelines, essential for manufacturers within the Department of Defense supply chain, and the emerging Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC). These discussions underscore the importance of staying proactive in cybersecurity to safeguard sensitive information and maintain eligibility for DoD contracts.
Listen in as we also discuss the financial and time constraints that manufacturers face when implementing cybersecurity protocols. Our conversation lays out the support available through the New York State Cybersecurity Manufacturing Initiatives Grant, designed to offset the costs of cybersecurity assessments for small and medium-sized manufacturers.
